Newest version of Firefox for Windows will not install.

After the auto update of Firefox failed to work, I downloaded the full installation file for the most recent version of Firefox (28.0). The setup file extracts but doesn't install. I also cannot find the extracted file(s) on my computer. I have tried uninstalling older versions, running antivirus, anti-rootkit and malware programs and also disabling those programs before trying to install. Any other suggestions I can try?

Try a custom install.

I run Windows 7 and the newest version (10.6) of iTunes will not install. The installer won't even begin, and when I run the Apple Software update, it tells me that iCloud and iTunes have invalid signature.

When I run the Apple Software update, it tells me that iCloud and iTunes have invalid signature and will not be downloaded. When I DL iTunes64setup.exe, the program will not start (there's a bar that flashes but nothing actually begins). I've done everything short of reinstalling Windows to fix this (system resore, unistalling all Apple products, taking down firewall, running Windows FixIt - which either won't find the problem or gives me an error saying that the troubleshooter cannot be downloaded at this time, going into the security features to allow programs without valid signatures, trying to install earlier versions of iTunes). It all started when I downloaded the Decemberists new album on my iPhone, and it wasn't downloading it properly so I connected it to my Dell, but some songs still wouldn't DL - also, the newest OS for my iPhone still won't install via WiFi - and so I uninstalled iTunes first, but nothing is helping. And I don't have any security issues (Norton has checked). Any ideas? I'm at my wit's end after 3 days of this. Thank you.

Ok, so after like 4 days of going through all these different issues, I figured out that several programs weren't downloading, and it was an issue with my wireless connectivity messing up the digital signatures, so if you plug in your comp to the modem and delete your temp files, it should start to work!

ICloud Control Panel for Windows will not install on Win 7 64-bit

I already installed iTunes 10.5 and I downloaded the iCloud Control Panel for Windows and when I tried installing it I got the following error message:
I cannot find a a 64-bit of iCloud (if that is what I need). The 64-bit iTunes installed ok. What am I doing wrong?

I don't know how to answer that question, Rob, or why I would be able to. Obviously people will have different configutrations. It really just points to the question I am asking. I can only assume Adobe hasn't tested it thoroighly enough and is not making any effort to find out why, which suggests to me they don't really care enough about their users to bother. This issue has been raised often enough and nothing has been done.

A program designed for windows will not install

I have been trying install the latest version of the Roche Accu-Chek Compass software on my new MacBook with Leopard, Bootcamp and the latest updated version of Windows XP all installed. The installation disk is OK (It installs on another PC OK. Accu-Chek support have been unable to help so far. I wonder if anyone else has had similar problems or can make any suggestions? The install wizard appears to start OK but then stops and a pop-up headed Install Error detected appears, saying "Install encountered an unexpected error please try again"
Any advice would be much appreciated.

I have found a solution! Download and install VM Fusions then install Accu-Chek Compass - it then works like a dream. In fact I am delighted with VM Fusions it seems work in the way I had hoped that Bootcamp would. I have obtained the 30 day trial version from

Hope this helps. ( I have no connection with VM Ware other than as a potential customer)

The latest itunes for windows will not install

I have an old PC running windows and I want to transfer my itunes songs to my ipad. I can't do this until I update iTunes but trying to update does nothing, either from iTunes or from the web page. I've tried rebooting the PC, still doesn't work. How do I get iTunes to update? Or, how do I transfer to the iPad without updating? The version of iTunes I have is older than 10.5, not sure where to find version #. Thanks!

Hi b noir, thanks for offering to help. i documented the whole process:
Itunes transfer from pc to ipad.
1. Connect ipad to PC
2. Pc recognizes ipad as a camera, gives me list of programs to launch, not sure if this has any relevance, no itunes on list, instead its kodak easyshare, ms doc wizard, ms camera sharing, ms word,mp navagator ex, omnipage, photoshop - I ignore this screen
3. Launch itunes, get screen, "ipad requires v 10.5 or later' go to itunes.com. I click ok
4. I get screen, still in itunes, "a new version (10.7) is available." I click download.
5. That screen goes away but nothing happens. No download starts.
6. Checked itunes folder on my hard drive, no sign that anything new has downloaded
7. Launch safari, go to itunes.com, hit download button
8. Nothing seems to be happening.
9. I get "thank you for downloading itunes" screen.
10. Still nothing new in itunes folder.
11. Get AVG screen telling me to restart my pc to finish download process.
12. During shutdown, I get screen,"the instruction at 0x100066dd referenced memory at 0x100066dd. The instruction could not be read." Gave me options to terminate program or debug. I did not choose either. No idea if this is relevant.
13. PC rebooted anyway.
14. Launched itunes
15. Got same message as before - "ipad requires v 10.5 or later' go to itunes.com. I click ok
16. Even though ipad is plugged in all this time, the screen that thinks the ipad is a camera does not come up this time.
17. There is nothing to the left of the itunes interface that lists devices - this is where ipad would appear, right?
18. Ipad appears on My Computer control panel
19. My version of itunes is 10.3.1.55
20. In itunes, i go to Help - Run Diagnostics - run all but Cd/Dvdtest
21. Secure Link to Itunes store failed, everything before that is ok. I click Help. nothing happens. Store appears in itunes so I don't see why this would fail.
22. Since help doesn't work, I move on in test. Two more fail screens: itunes helper not running, no ipad found. help brings up appropriate pages for both. Both recommend removing and reinstalling itunes.
23. Device sync also fails.
If it would be quickest to delete and reinstall itunes, I am willing to do that. My music would not be deleted correct? What about playlists (not as important to me).
I also have all my music backed up to CD. It would be tedious to copy that all to ipad, but if there is a way to do it and no other option, I could do that.

Photoshop CS6 for windows will not install.

I have already copied the lesson files to my hard drive as the book instructs, however there is no autorun screen, or even a shortcut/icon that says Adobe Photoshop, the same applies for Adobe Bridge. What am I doing wrong? I need this for a college course and have already missed an assignment because I cannot get it to work. Please help?

Products
Here is a link to the Student Store -- you should be eligible for a discount through your school. I don't see CS6 on there, so you may have to get the cloud instead to get the discount. (You can find out from the chat window that will show up if you stay on the page for a few minutes). If you just need Photoshop, the Photographers bundle is the best deal.

ITunes 11 for windows will not install

Itunes for windows will not install

SInce Christmas, I have tried installing iTunes for my Ipod shuffle. I have NIS and I've followed some instructions I found on a thread to add itunes and ipod into my programs and "permit all"- that usually freezes the computer. I wind up sending error reports to windows and cold booting the computor. I think I successfully installed both itunes and ipod into My Computer/Downloads. However- - neither via shortcut on my desktop or thru programs can I access itunes. The icon is there, and nothing happens. I am pretty sure it has to do wit NIS. In one instance I did try disabling the security and firewall features- but a lot of crap got onto my desktop. help!

Kellie,
remind me, did you try an EWIDO scan? Sounds like a malware problem to me. Go download EWIDO, its free and the only program that I know of that is catching the particular variant of malware that is blocking iTunes. Its a nasty bug that started showing up in October or so.
The website is www.ewido.net/en/
Use that scan about twice a week. It blows Mcafee and Norton out of the water.
Good Luck.
PS I recommend picking up LsvaSoft's AdAware SE, its free and available for free downloads on their website. It scans and removes spyware. Use that twice a week as well to maintain a healthy PC.

Itunes 7.0 for windows will not install Error 1392

I get an error message when i try to update to 7.0 It says could not set security file for file 'C:\documents and settings\all users\application data/apple computer/itunes/SCinfo\'.Error1392

Hopglock,
You have your permissions on that folder or another folder in the hierarchy set to read only permission or some other security lock down. You need to turn off read only or change security permission so that the iTunes installer can write to
the
C:\documents and settings\all users\application data\apple computer\itunes\SCinfo
folder.

Please help, I must have downloaded quicktime 30 times and it still doesn't work. Any advice would help, so please get back to me.

There's no 3.6.18, so there appears to be a glitch in the update checking. Or the message is not really from Firefox (malware site).

Where can I down load older versions of FireFox for windows and Mac for testing my application? I need to have copies of version 3, 4 and 5.

My tesm develops .net applications that must support many browsers and we need access to download older versions of FireFox for windows and mac computers, so that we can test our application prior to rolling out a new version.
Where can I download older versions of FireFox

Firefox 3.5 is an antique version that is chock-full of security vulnerabilities.<br>
Firefox 3.6 also contains security vulnerabilities; it stopped being supported on April 24.
* [https://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/ www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/]
If you can't run the latest version because your system doesn't meet the requirements, it's highly recommended that you use another browser that is secure. TenFourFox is a third-party build of Firefox that is kept up-to-date and runs on Mac OS X 10.4 and PowerPC Macs (as a side note, I've never seen the site go down; whatever problems James noticed 9 months ago must've been a fluke).
* [http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/ www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/]
If your system can run the latest version, but you want to downgrade because you've experienced problems, please start a new thread and someone will try to help you.
If you understand the security risks but want to downgrade anyway,
* Firefox 3.6: [http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all-older.html www.mozilla.com/firefox/all-older.html]

Firefox Browser window will not open or start.

Sorry that this is long, but I wanted to make sure you knew as much as you needed to know.
I click on the icon in my Windows taskbar, and the firefox browser window will not open.
This was not the first of my problems. At first, Firefox would open immediately, but soon afterward, it began to slow, and soon, it took around 10-15 seconds for the browser window to start.
Now it won't start at all.
I will admit that I go all addon-happy on Firefox, but these extensions have never been a problem before. Here is the list:<br />
<pre>ReaditLater
ReloadEvery (this one doesn't work anymore, but I did have it once)
Ookong
PriceBlink
StumbleUpon
SimilarWeb
WOT
XMarks (I didn't use it much)
NoScript (I recently uninstalled that one, but that might have a factor in it. That thing was WAY too powerful!)
CoolIris
CoolPreview
AdHacker
AdBlock
AdBlockPlus
PersonasExpression
AntBar
ABE (I'm not sure if this was an extension, but I know that there was
alot of security-type addons from the Paranoid Kit, which is a
list of addons on the addons webpage.)
</pre>
Oh yeah, one more thing! <br />
I recently installed a GameVance installation thing. I'm not sure what it did, but could've had a virus in it that surpassed my security. I use Avast, if that's important at all. That thing was hard to uninstall, so I had to go back to the site to get the uninstallation software.
I tried to use the firefox.exe -ProfileManager thing, but it kept crashing, so it was useless.
Please help me fix this. I love Firefox. It's the only browser that allowed you to use the most addons! Plus, ALL MY STUFF IS ON THERE! I'd hate to have to change browsers (and I REFUSE to use Internet Explorer!)

See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser_will_not_start_up
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]]
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins"
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)<br />
